Chapter 188 Suzuki Sonoko cried out.
Sonoko Suzuki is extremely depressed right now!
I had originally planned to take Xiaolan to the newly opened cute accessory shop on the street today, to enjoy some happy time just the two of us, but who would have thought...
"We finally got rid of Shinichi Kudo, and then came Conan. Conan is clingy, and now we have 'Akako-chan' too. And now there's a girl who looks a lot like Ran! Sonoko Suzuki, your best friend title, which you've held for over a decade, is being challenged!"
Sonoko bit her nails, raised her eyes, and glared at the couples in front of her, muttering something in a harsh tone.
Ran is so kind, considerate, and adorable, of course she wouldn't neglect Sonoko Suzuki, her best friend in the world. But when she walks among Conan, Ran, and Aoko's chaotic battles, she always has the illusion of being hit in the face by something!
In a few more years, she might be able to find a more fitting description:
Cold dog food was slapped haphazardly on my face~
Adjusting her newly bought blue headband, Sonoko clenched her fist, rallied her spirits, and turned back with a smile: "Oh well, at least I still have Kuromon-kun on my side..."
Five meters behind the group, Kuromon Haruya was gazing intently into Koizumi Akako's eyes, his face unusually serious and attentive, as they chatted happily. In contrast, Koizumi Akako's gaze, fixed on Kuromon's face, was unfocused, clearly captivated by his personal charm.
Clearly, the mysterious atmosphere between them didn't allow for a third person.
"...Well!"
With a muffled groan, Sonoko Suzuki clutched her chest, as if she heard a shattering sound:
Although Miss Akako may be the most beautiful person in the world, Kuromon, you promised to let me protect your single life (?)!
"Damn it, it's really damned!"
Under the azure sky, Sonoko Suzuki, a self-proclaimed beautiful and charming golden bachelor, walked alone in the middle of the group, looking up at the school building and letting out a long howl, startling a flock of birds into flight.
"In that case, I, Sonoko Suzuki, am determined to find a handsome guy in Ekoda today and have a passionate romance—"
Perhaps it was divine intervention, but not far away on the lawn, a handsome man was lying in the shade of a tree, enjoying the cool air!
"Lucky!"
With a stride that was sure to impress Ran, Suzuki Sonoko approached the handsome, pale-skinned man, fiddled with her fingers, and stammered, "Um, are you feeling unwell?"
Excellent! Start by portraying yourself as a kind and good woman, showcasing your gentleness and thoughtfulness. Use your personal charm and beauty to win him over in one fell swoop.
Sonoko Suzuki, you are a genius!
"Hey classmate? Are you alright? You'll catch a cold lying here." With a sweet smile on her lips, Sonoko reached out and tugged at the hem of the sleepy prince's clothes, then felt a dampness on the back of her hand.
"what?"
I withdrew my hand; bright red liquid clung to the back of my hand, emitting a familiar fishy smell.
Blood, fresh blood! Sonoko stared at her blood-stained hand, then glanced at the blood-soaked lawn, her face instantly turning deathly pale. She threw her head back and screamed, "Aaaaaah!"
......
A large crowd of students had gathered at the crime scene. Pushing aside the makeshift cordon, Inspector Megure looked at Haruya Kuromon, who was deep in thought, and patted him on the shoulder, asking:
"Brother Heimen, how's the on-site investigation going? Have you found out the basic information about the deceased?"
"deceased!"
Before Kuromon Haruya could reply, a shout suddenly came from the student group!
"What! Someone really died!" "No way, that kind of thing!"
"No way, how could this be! This is Ekoda, I don't believe it..."
One emotionally fragile female student covered her face and cried on the spot: "The last pure land of Mihua has fallen, Mom, I want to transfer schools!"
"Uh, this...?"
Scanning the suddenly grief-stricken young people, Inspector Megure, unaware of what he had said wrong, stared blankly at Haruya Kuromon.
"Sigh, this was my mistake."
As one of the participants who brought death into the school, Kuromon Haruya sighed, and instead of answering, waved his arm and turned to the crowd: "Everyone, don't panic. The injured have been sent to the hospital for treatment in time! There has been no murder on campus. Please cooperate with the investigation."
He then casually suggested to the sweating head of the teaching department beside him, "Your school must want to resolve this as soon as possible, right? I saw several students who remained calm and proactively helped in the face of the incident; they are promising talents worthy of recommendation and bonus points."
The headmaster, whose hair was practically falling out of his pocket from worry, nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, you're right! It's definitely worth recommending and giving extra points!"
The students gathering intelligence outside the perimeter brightened up: 'Highly recommended!'
Within a minute, the riot subsided as the information was relayed through the crowd.
The students, standing at attention with stiff faces and resolute expressions, made Inspector Megure cover his mouth to suppress a laugh. He gave Haruya Kuromon a thumbs up: Brilliant, truly brilliant!
Yoruichi shook his head and took Inspector Megure to a more secluded spot to talk.
"I apologize, Inspector Megure. I didn't explain things clearly when I reported the incident. Although the victim was unconscious due to massive blood loss when he was found, he has been assessed by paramedics and is out of danger."
Recalling the scene, Yoruichi Kuromon looked away in shame.
After Sonoko discovered the victim, the four main characters rushed forward and offered token first aid, while he was naturally responsible for calling the police. Having been with Conan for so long, the quick-call sequence for immediately calling the police after seeing a victim fail to receive first aid was ingrained in his mind, which led to...
"Brother Heimen, we've stabilized his condition... Huh? You didn't call an ambulance? He's not dead yet!"
"That's how it is. I didn't think things through." Kuromon Haruya lowered his head obediently, kicking the weeds on the ground in frustration.
After listening to the whole thing, Inspector Megure remained silent for a long time, but in reality, he was sweating profusely: Oh no, just thinking about Conan being there makes me think I'll immediately assume the victim is dead.
He coughed lightly and changed the subject: "What about Conan and the others? Are they investigating another case?"
"Hmm, they seem to have found some important clues. They asked me to stay here and take care of the victims while they went to investigate." The outsourced team is making significant progress; I'm relieved.
"Oh dear, these young people, do they really love meddling in police work?" That's a good hobby. If more talents like Kudo's emerged, he could finish his overtime work sooner and go home to be with Midori!
"Yeah, we still have to worry about these kids." I've secured a permanent spot, steadily building up my reputation within the Metropolitan Police Department.
Ten minutes later, while the two adults chatted on and off, and were also doing some investigation and sorting, the imposing group of four, along with Sonoko and Akako, finally brought a man with a bruised and swollen face to the scene.
Inspector Megure, gazing at the familiar face he hadn't seen in so long, immediately uttered a heartfelt and tender call: "Kudo-kun~"
